It’s not just about learning a new exercise... it’s about understanding why would you do that exercise in the first place! Then know what it feels like with correct tension and sequencing... this is what takes time, focus, dedication and many reps / sets. Once you understand the move, add variations to keep challenging your brain and nervous system 👊🏼

Reposted from @naudiaguilar - My mindset on a daily basis. There's no time to mask problems, when I know I need to address them. There is no common enemy I choose to blame for my failures. It's not white people, black people, Mexican people, Jewish people, rich people, poor people, gay people, straight people, famous people, beautiful people, ugly people, tall people, short people, smart people, stupid people that are to blame for my failures in 2019. It's me. I am the problem.

To a few people, I have been the common enemy and I have learned precisely why it is that losers lose in this society and winners win. They say that history is written by the winners of wars. Maybe that's true. But it seems like the losers are chalk full of excuses...
.

So many people state they want to change the world. The question I propose is why you want that change? Do you want that change because you didn't end up being the standout, or do you want it to change because this culture needs to respect natural processes better? Do you really want to enhance this place, or do you want a lead role without having to put in the work to get and stay there?
.

Denial is a crazy thing. Literally. In 2019, people in my eyes don't have an excuse to be mediocre. There is no societal oppression if you have the internet at the palm of your hands to pull you out of your situation. What we all need is useful knowledge. The internet is filled with it. What do people spend their time doing with the internet? They use it as a drug, instead of a tool.
.
.
I use the internet to help me solve my problems. It's the variable we always needed to upgrade our intelligence so that we could make a more balanced society. First place this change happens is with me and my dysfunctions. Going homer status on these motherfuckers.

I wanted to create a resource for my clients to perform between training sessions, and for those that are just starting to learn about the foundations of posture. No equipment, no excuses. .
.
I highly recommend using a mirror or dowel for feedback on your spinal alignment. If those aren’t available then video yourself to compare your execution to mine.
.
.
I’ve still got work to do on these, but I’ve come a long ways since I started properly executing them last year. For more in-depth instructions, read “the power of posture” or go through the 10-week online Functional Patterns course.

@functionalpatterns: Functional Patterns
Relevant Human Optimization
Intelligence is not having a high IQ. Intelligence is having the capability to focus on what brings about worthwhile outcomes. A high IQ is not a determinant of whether you can choose between what's relevant or irrelevant. It tells you that you can fill gaps on straight forward problems that may or or may not relate to reality. Life is not straight forward. Life is non linear. .
.
At FP, we don't fill gaps on abstractions. We fill gaps on things that relate to natural process. FP is the messenger humanity has waited on for a long time. A very long time.
Let's go!

Repost @fp.petr.mach
Working with my 16 years old client who has a cerebral palsy!
We have been working for a month that time when the video was taken.
He comes to me once a week and during the week he keeps himself busy with all other activities which is great.
Our goal is to improve walking!!! Follow his story and progress as there is more to come!
